Awesome Escape Room Apps!

If you like solving puzzles and riddles, then escape rooms are the perfect form of entertainment for you. In an escape room, you (and your team) are placed in a locked room where there are hidden clues which can help you find a way to escape. While escape rooms are increasingly becoming popular in America, you might not be in a position to go to a physical one. Thankfully, there is an escape room app for you.

Escape rooms have become popular for mobile gamers as they are usually not very demanding in terms of processor needs and they work on any smart mobile device. It is an intellectually stimulating game, and the mobile version of the game engages your detective skills, not wowing you with heavy graphics and clunky gameplay.

Here are some apps that you might enjoy next time you want to participate in a quick escape room experience. For the purpose of inclusivity, all the apps listed in this guide have Apple iOS and Android versions.

1. Meetup.com app

This is a strange way to begin the list since, the meetup app, is not a mobile escape room game. However, Meetup is an important app for any escape room enthusiasts since it allows you to find an escape room group to enjoy a session with. If your friends are not particularly interested in escape rooms, or if you are new to a city and have not yet met like-minded individuals, you can search on the app to see if there are any active escape room groups within your area.

2. The Room Trilogy

The room has to be one of the most popular escape room apps on both the iOS and Android platforms. Despite being called ‘The Room’, the actual gameplay is based on cracking a safe which has a number of hidden clues on its surface. Cracking open the first safe reveals another safe inside it. The game is enjoyable to play, almost addictive, as every safe is much more challenging to crack than the previous one. With the Room 2, and 3; the game expanded to include multiple rooms (much like the actual escape room experience).

3. Escape the Titanic

The premise for this escape room game is straightforward, you are on the sinking Titanic and you need to solve puzzles and find clues to escape to the safety of a lifeboat. There are more than 50 puzzles and countless of hidden clues which should keep the ardent escape room fan engaged for hours.

4. Hellraid: The escape

If you have a penchant for the macabre, then Hellraid is the perfect escape room game for you. It is set in a torture dungeon and you have to solve puzzles and unearth clues to avoid a gory end. It has a more engaging visual appeal, with cinematic sequences which makes it perfect for the new breed of powerful mobile smart devices.
